A fan housing for a vehicle system includes a housing frame extending in a peripheral direction and penetrated by a connection opening for suctioning external air or external particles. A suctioned airflow or particle flow flows through the housing frame as a suction flow and in a direction of flow. Starting from the connection opening, a connection pipe extends in a direction outside the housing frame and a partition extends in a direction inside the housing frame.

An apparatus and a method are provided for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) home air filter to remove airborne molecular contaminants and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from air within residential spaces. The HVAC home air filter includes a supportive frame having a shape and size suitable to orient the HVAC home air filter within a residential HVAC system. A filter medium is retained within the supportive frame to remove the airborne molecular contaminants and VOCs from air flowing through the residential HVAC system. The filter medium includes a combination of media layers configured to exhibit a relatively high filtration efficiency and a low air pressure drop across the filter medium. The supportive frame includes a plurality of elongate sections and corner sections disposed along perimeter edges of the filter medium to support the filter medium within the residential HVAC system so as direct air through the filter medium.

An implantable drainage device is provided. The device is adapted to move body fluid from one part of the body of a patient to another part of the body.

A blood clot removal device for removing blood clots from the vascular system of a patient is implantable in the patient's body. The blood clot removal device comprises a blood flow passageway to be connected to the patient's vascular system to allow circulation of the patient's blood through the blood flow passageway, a filter provided in the blood flow passageway for collecting blood clots occurring in the blood flowing through the blood flow passageway, and a cleaning device for moving blood clots collected by the filter out of the blood flow passageway. By means of such blood clot removal device, the risk of blood clots reaching sensitive areas of the patient's body, such as the brain, is reduced.

An air conditioner unit includes a blower fan, an inlet grille upstream of the blower fan, and an outlet grille downstream of the blower fan. The air conditioner unit also includes an air filter positioned between the inlet grille and the outlet grille with a belt encircling and enclosing the air filter on four sides. The air conditioner unit further includes a motor operatively connected to the belt. The motor is configured to rotate the belt around the air filter and thereby clean the air filter.

The present invention relates to a filtering device for removing particles from a bodily fluid of a patient, the filtering device being implantable in the patient's body. The device has a tube forming a main fluid passageway for bodily fluid, through which the bodily fluid of the patient passes when the tube is implanted in the patient, a filter connected to the tube and a filter cleaning device for cleaning the filter by moving particles collected by the filter out of the fluid passageway, wherein the filter cleaning device is adapted to replace the first filter in the fluid passageway with a second filter, thereby moving the particles collected by the first filter out of the fluid passageway.

The present disclosure relates to a method of compacting an ash deposited in a particulate filter for a vehicle exhaust gas system, the method includes the steps of: a) providing a low-temperature melting salt to the particulate filter, thereby forming a mixture of the ash and the low-temperature melting salt: and b) heating the particulate filter to a compaction temperature, thereby compacting the mixture of the ash and the low-temperature melting salt. The disclosure further relates to engine oils, dosage products, engine systems and vehicles for implementing such a method.

A gas purification apparatus includes: a housing to which a gas is introduced; a filter portion for removing an impure substance in the gas from the gas, the filter portion being disposed inside the housing; and a gas purification agent for removing a removal target substance in the gas from the gas, the gas purification agent being disposed, inside the housing, on the filter potion or in a space at a downstream side of the filter portion with respect to a flow of the gas.

A work vehicle includes an engine, a compressor used to compress an air toward the engine, a charge air cooler, a sensor, and a control unit. The charge air cooler comprising or coupled to a fan. The fan can rotate in a first direction to remove a heat of the air and to rotate in a second direction reverse to the first direction so as to blow a debris. The control unit is electrically coupled to the engine and to the fan. The control unit predicts whether a temperature of the air exceeds a threshold based on a signal received from the sensor. When the temperature of the air is below the threshold, the fan can rotate in the second direction. When the temperature of the air is equal to or above the threshold, the fan is inhibited from rotating in the second direction.
